About me

About me
I am a journalist and educator working with international think tanks in the area of diversity, integration and migration.

Why Seattle
With 1,000 new people moving to Seattle every week, there are new and exciting places to discover all the time, from Group Muse to cafe launch parties, to book swaps and pop-up restaurants. I know them all and I want to share them with others. As quickly as they appear they can just as quickly disappear, so let's capture what we can, when we can.

Where else can you find me online?

Victrola Coffee Roasters

Starbucks local rivalry
